Have you heard of the Gokhale Method® for relearning our natural posture? I love using this method so much that over the past year, I took the teacher training and became a qualified teacher in June 2016.

For a long time I’ve been aware that many of my patients’ (and my own) chronic and recurring pain issues may be caused by poor posture. We try to sit up straight or pull our shoulders back, but it doesn’t last long because we’re using muscle tension to hold an unnatural position.

What if we could relearn our healthy posture – the posture we had as little kids, when we didn’t hurt? Or copy people living in traditional, non-industrial societies who stay active and pain-free as they age? Esther Gokhale (pronounced “Go-clay”) has put this all together beautifully into clear steps that are easy to teach and learn.

It’s meant to be immediately plugged into your everyday activities – sitting, standing, walking, bending, even sleeping – so there’s no need to carve out extra time in your day for practicing. As many students have said to me, it’s really an investment in yourself, as you can reap the benefits every day for the rest of your life.

I’m so pleased to be teaching this wonderfully effective, practical method of self-care. So many people get remarkable results from these simple techniques! Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.
